we did drive to both of the off season events we attended so far. we drove to new hampshire for ralley in the valley (300 miles there and 300 miles back) and we drove to massachusetts for mayhem on the merrimack (250 miles each way) we got long island cycle and marine to lend us a trailer, threw a robot or two in there along with some tools, and stuffed as many people as we could fit into a truck and left. we left just after midnight to get to ralley in the valley by 7 and left at about 3am to get to mayhem. we love the off-season, it's a time to test out new strategies and systems for the robot. we have made some structural changes to our robot after each off season compitition.
